Nightmare Revisited

Nightmare Revisited You’ll notice we’ve included two songs from The Nightmare Before Christmas in our Halloween Customer Favorites. Year after year, sheet music for Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas continues to be a screeching hit among our Musicnotes.com customers and fans of Jack Skellington everywhere. This year, watch for the CD Nightmare Revisited, a new collection of arrangements from The Nightmare Before Christmas featuring bands and musicians like Marilyn Manson, Korn, DeVotchKa, Flyleaf, Amy Lee and more!

We’ve listened to this soundtrack and were pretty surprised at the “power” of what different arrangements of these Halloween favorites from The Nightmare Before Christmas can do. From rock-n-roll to pop and classical music versions of these songs, it’s no wonder that this CD is getting a lot of acclaim.

For more The Nightmare Before Christmas in your home this Halloween, we recommend checking out the video games Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II where you can actually play “in” Halloween Town. Also, last year’s release The Nightmare Before Christmas in 3-D is making an appearance in theaters again this year, so be sure to check your local movie theater for listings.
